DIVERSA Festival Internacional de Cine
Gay Lésbico Trans de Argentina


Many Fiction, Documentary and Experimenal films from all over the world are exhibited in DIVERSA, all of them in 11 days and in 2 theatres.

The first edition of this festival was made on the year 2004, being the first festival of these characteristics in Latin America, and the only one in Argentina even nowadays, achieving in short time a position as the most important one of the region with international projection.

The most of the fims presented were never exhibited in the country, and perhaps even in the continent. Besides this international productions, within our program there's a great emphasis in national and Latin American productions. So DIVERSA is an unique way of expression with no precedence.

The selection criteria is focused in the points of view from which these stories are told, trying to gather the works that are closer to the GLTBI reality, with interesting contents, emotional impact, and optimum cinematographic quality. No pornography is exhibited.

DIVERSA works against discrimination and towards respect for diversity, reducing distances through culture, generating direct channels of communication and collaborating with the development of cinematography in all areas and territories 

DIVERSA rewards the best productions with prices and special mentions based in the vote of the audience for best feature, documentary and short film. The filmakers attending to the festival present their own films, invited to answer questions after the exhibition.

DIVERSA translates and subtitles all the films that are presented in the program.
There's a parallel Art Gallery with GLTBI related works and discussion tables oriented to both the general audience and the specialized. We invite in that case specialized panellists and guests from abroad.

The festival is only developed in Theatres that count with the properly habilitation and that count with the necessary equipment.

Along the rest of the year, DIVERSA works and carries out other activities, such us the programing of films about sexual diversity and it's presentation in television and other theatres, the constitution of an specialized archive with films and a complete database for general infromation.
